I liked to study about the chapter about earth, earthquakes, and volcanoes. I liked to study about Earth and all the others because it told me about what could happen and because it could give me a future job. I also liked it because I could relate to it easily since and I am surrounded with forest it’s easy to study rocks and other things.
Some of the things I learned in class were about cells; what they were made up of. Another was animal classification and what is on top of the food chain. Also what a producer and a consumer were and what they do. I have also learned about magnitudes and focal point when an earthquake happens. I also learned about how certain rocks are formed and what minerals are made up of. Also about the elements and how they are put into different groups according to what they have in them. There are many different things but those are the ones I remember the most.
It can apply for the real world if I want a job doing something that involves science. Another is I would know what to do when an earthquake happens and how it happens. I can also apply this to the real world since I live by a forest I could know about the food chain.
My work example, my adopt an element project: Adopt an Element
Micha’l Breslin
Element: Helium
Symbol Atomic Number Atomic Mass
He 2 2
# of protons # of Neutrons # number of Electrons
2 2 2
Melting Point Boiling Point NormalPhase
272.2 C 268.93 C Gas
Cost=$0.53 for per gram in helium in the tank.
Classification: Nonmetal
My element belongs to the gas family
Origin of the name:from the Greek word "helios" meaning "sun."
Discovered by: Helium was discovered by the French astronomer Pierre Janssen in 1868
Interesting info: May include important uses, interesting facts, common compounds etc.

1. As a gas, for supersonic wind tunnels.
2. Nuclear detonation simulations (using conventional explosives)
3. helium/neon lasers
4. Balloons
5. Helium is used in Cryogenics
6. Widely used as an inert gas shield for arc welding
